Wine of the Week

August 11th, 2011 by Winey and Cheesey

Hermitage Blanc, Belle Vineyards 1999

Recommended by our house sommelier, Christian Borel, this fantastic summer wine hails from Lamage village in Rhone Valley, France.  The vineyard itself is located just below Hermitage and is covered with limestone granite pebbles and vines over 20 years old, this gives Hermitage Blanc it’s unique flavor.

Crisp quince and honey citrus dominate this medium-bodied, richly fruity wine. A perfect summer wine to sip on the porch after a hot day or have with an elegant menu.

Journey of Wine, Gastronomy & Literature Afternoon

August 7th, 2011 by Winey and Cheesey

We are getting excited for our upcoming wine tasting on Sunday, August 21.

Presently Madame Celeste Borel and Chef Jacob are brewing up ideas for a phenomenal cuisine and wine selection and with Jason Bise from Country Vinter pairing a harmonizing wine medley for the ultimate tasting experience.

The L’Auberge Provençale crew is thrilled of meeting Author Roy Cloud and hearing of his stories from his new book “To Burgundy and Back Again: A Tale of Wine, France, and Brotherhood.” We are anticipating the arrival Roy’s book that he will autograph and give each attendee any day now.

We hope you’ll pencil in the magnificent afternoon awaiting you.
